Myrtle Beach Gears Up for an Exciting ONEflight Classic
Get ready, Myrtle Beach! The upcoming ONEflight Myrtle Beach Classic is set to take place at the stunning Dunes Golf and Beach Club from May 8-11, 2025. Co-sponsored by ONEflight International, this tournament promises to deliver an unforgettable experience right in the heart of one of the most beautiful golf destinations.
A Grand Kickoff with Celebrities
This year, Ferren Rajput, the CEO of ONEflight, is bringing a whole new level of excitement to the pro-am experience. With celebrities like Kevin Costner, Kurt Russell, and Anthony Anderson officially on board, players and fans alike can anticipate a star-studded event that kicks off the tournament in grand style. Moreover, discussions are ongoing with notable names including Bill Murray, Jon Hamm, and country star Jason Aldean for potential appearances, making this an event you won’t want to miss.
More than Just Golf
The tournament isn’t all about the game. Rajput is planning to include up to 18 pairings of celebrities, professional golfers, and paying amateurs in the pro-am contest, alongside traditional pro-am teams without celebrity participants. This unique pairing allows fans the chance to play alongside their favorite stars, turning the golf experience into something out of a dream!
Musical Delights for Everyone
And it gets better! During the tournament, musical performances will enthrall attendees with the uplifting sounds of Tyler Hubbard, formerly of Florida Georgia Line, along with the delightful Chairmen of the Board. Concerts will now be held in the exciting Fan Zone, strategically located near the 17th green and 18th tee box, ensuring everyone can enjoy great music while soaking in the vibrant atmosphere.
Big Prizes Await
The total purse for the tournament is a whopping $4 million, making it one of the highlights on the PGA Tour. Fans can catch all the action live on the Golf Channel, with broadcasts scheduled from 10 a.m. to noon on Thursday and Friday, and again from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. It’s important to note that the Myrtle Beach Classic will coincide with the Truist Championship at The Philadelphia Cricket Club, where a staggering $20 million purse is up for grabs.
More Fun in Store for Families
Saturday, May 10, will be extra special as it’s branded Family Day. Families can bring their children for a day filled with activities, and kids aged 15 and under will be admitted free with a ticketed adult. This makes it the perfect opportunity for families to bond and enjoy some quality time together. Additionally, an exclusive Patriot Outpost hospitality venue will be available to honor active military and veterans, ensuring all are welcomed.
Giving Back to the Community
One of the most exciting new features of this year’s tournament is the much-anticipated Charity Corner. This initiative will benefit nine charities with a combined total of $250,000 in donations, showcasing the event’s commitment to giving back to the community. The Horry County Schools Day initiative is another wonderful addition, offering educational opportunities for approximately 100 high school juniors and seniors interested in agronomy.
Get Involved!
For those looking to be part of the action, volunteer registration is now open! There are around 1,500 positions available across 34 committees, giving everyone a chance to participate in this fantastic event. Tickets for general admission and private hospitality options are already available, and it’s worth noting that Club 18 tickets have already sold out for the weekend. Attendance is expected to surpass last year’s impressive numbers, which saw over 40,000 attendees and a significant $15.4 million economic impact on the area.
